PURPOSE:
To consider transferring $850,000 from the Human Services General Fund 07530-611250-100 to the Senior Citizens Grant fund project/award 106563/602876; to consider authorizing the Chief Executive Officer to execute all necessary documents; to consider authorizing disbursements under the terms of the grant agreement; to consider authorizing the Finance Department to issue payments to subcontractors using the transferred funds.

NEED/IMPACT:
Each year, an amount is earmarked and approved in the County's budget for the delivery of aging services to eligible County seniors. In the County's 2024 budget, $850,000 was approved for the delivery of aging services. This amount will be added to the estimated $2 million dollars of federal and state funds that the County will receive from the Atlanta Regional Commission to provide aging services. The transfer of the $850,000 from the General Fund to the Grant Fund will prevent the delay in payment to the subcontractors for the services that they provide. The department requests that the amount approved in the General Fund 07530-611250-100 for senior services be transferred to the Grant Fund project/award 1006563/602876.

Additionally, three positions are paid from these funds - Information & Referral Specialist, Fiscal Assistant, and Human Services Administrator.

FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact as this action only transfer already appropriated funds.
